Singlespeed & Fixed Gear"I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five.
Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Hey guys, I am new to the forums. I have been riding fixies for about a year now. I'm looking to get a new one. (Away from my regular conversion) Two sites that have struck my fancy. Not sure how reliable the parts could be. I know republic bikes and big shot bikes are pretty much crap. What about these two?
